About us

Turn Oceans of Data into Mountains of Under­standing.

Since 2011 north.io, based in Kiel, Germany, has been the expert in the organisation and management of geospatial data TrueEarth on land and TrueOcean at sea .

Our young, English-speaking team from the fields of computer science, geography and physics, is international and interdisciplinary in nature, and we are always happy to meet exciting, motivated people working together. Our digital tools create the knowledge that enables our government and business customers to better understand their geospatial data and make informed decisions. This is how we address complex challenges such as climate change, energy transition and digital transformation.

Our Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) solutions make geospatial data easily accessible, quickly discoverable, easily shareable and clearly understandable.

With our powerful and easy-to-use solutions, we help address the shortage of geospatial and IT professionals.

To do this, we have combined the benefits of cloud-based solutions with the capabilities of highly specialised geospatial technology to create a whole new breed of geospatial solutions. With our team of experienced UX designers, we have created an expert system that is easy to use, even for non-experts.

We are the only provider to combine the most diverse worlds in a new way: Cloud computing, web technologies, geoinformatics and data management. We are active in many areas: raster and vector data, hydrography, geotechnics, computer-aided design, geotechnical engineering, and sensor technology.

Let's join our team!
